Abstract
<p>The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified the growing issue of nurse turnover, especially among new graduate nurses (NGNs). The purpose of this study was to describe, compare, and examine the mentorship relationships of NGNs in Ontario across multiple healthcare settings, and to investigate the relationships between mentorship quality (MQ), occupational coping self-efficacy (OCSE), and turnover intention (TI). A descriptive cross-sectional design was utilized with a sample of 128 NGNs employed in long-term care, community care, and hospital settings </p> <p>The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified the growing issue of nurse turnover, especially among new graduate nurses (NGNs). The purpose of this study was to describe, compare, and examine the mentorship relationships of NGNs in Ontario across multiple healthcare settings, and to investigate the relationships between mentorship quality (MQ), occupational coping self-efficacy (OCSE), and turnover intention (TI). A descriptive cross-sectional design was utilized with a sample of 128 NGNs employed in long-term care, community care, and hospital settings. Data collected using an online survey were analyzed using SPSS version 27. The PROCESS macro was used to test a hypothesized mediation relationship between MQ and TI through OCSE. MQ was found to be the most statistically significant predictor of both OCSE and TI, with no significant mediation effect found. Managers, educators, and policymakers should develop strategies to optimize NGNs’ access to high-quality mentorship experiences, to mitigate negative outcomes associated with NGN turnover..
